Applied Currency Concepts is a U.S.-based producer of novelty and commemorative notes with no legal tender status anywhere. This piece was issued as a collector's curiosity in 2013, trading on Tesla's name and the obvious wordplay of denominating the note in "Volts" rather than dollars. Thomas Stebbins, who has designed a number of pieces in this series, works in the tradition of security-style intaglio simulation — printed on polymer stock to give the object a tactile credibility its legal status doesn't support.
Collect it for what it is. The volt denomination is the joke and the point.
